Um... sorry about the inconsistent APIs. The problem is that labels aren't
implemented as controls, they're just drawn by the form code itself. In OO
terms, there's a lack of a common base class.
As to a better way -- use WinEraseRectangle on the rectangle returned from
FrmGetObjectBounds.
WinInvertChars will be more careful about just inverting the actual 'on'
bits in the characters, but it'll also take a lot longer. If you can just
clear the whole rectangle, it'll go faster and be less code.
As a final note: In general it's wise to avoid all the 'invert' calls,
since they don't necessarily make sense if you ever do anything besides
black and white.
